Carl-E:
Yeah, Jeph linked to the Wikipedia article for Posession in his comment, but I missed it.
I've never seen it, and after reading about it, I'm not sure I want to...
I really did like the scenes of insanity, though. Well done. But my favorite shot of Faye here is the inflagrante one in the next to last panel!

Marten and Faye do look a little worse for wear, don't they?

--- Quote from: raoullefere on 21 Jul 2010, 23:37 ---I have only a vague idea what's going on in this comic (as usual with the guest strips from this artist), but I'd guess Sam Neill must've enjoyed being in that film—I suspect he digs working on freaky pics.

--- Quote from: Carl-E on 21 Jul 2010, 13:28 ---Oh, there was something special about Genghis. His holdings stretched across most of Asia and into "Europe" (OK, Turkey, so it's debatable if that's Europe).

And he's the only ruler to have been portrayed by John Wayne. :-D

And, my god, it sucked. Even <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agnes_Moorehead ">Endora[/url] couldn't save it with her magic.

I'd ask you to explain Mr. Neil's presence in Jurassic Park III then.
But man - the Conquerer was a really bad movie - Mongol was much better.

It's called paying the bills so you can work on artsy, freaky pics. Really, though, Neill was stuck—as I understand it, appearing in a second film, if Universal wanted him, was in his contract for the first one (that was what kept Neill from playing Elrond in TLoTR, btw; rejoice or be relieved as you wish). Also, for all that we think of it as mainstream now, Jurassic Park was on the somewhat freaky side when it was released—new tech and all that. Neill was one of the first people to appear with dinos that weren't either obviously animated, dudes in suits, or Slurpasaurs. It seems like a slam-dunk, but the whole thing could've bombed pretty easily. I recall wondering were they going to be able to pull it off, or was it going to be, say, Land of the Lost on the big screen—good-looking dinosaurs, but clearly fake.

--- Quote from: Akima on 21 Jul 2010, 23:46 ---OK, it must be art, because I can't understand it. But Faye in the fourth panel is fantastic.
--- End quote ---
I *think*:
a) Marten's a mafia don
b) Faye's his wife
c) Angus is a private dick investigating the suicide of Faye's dad (which we see in FB, with her collapsing to her knees)
d) Faye has an affair with Angus, and Marten walks in on them
Still some bits I'm missing (what the pictorial speech balloons are meant to say, f'rinstance), but that SEEMS to be the gist.
--- End quote ---
And Angus is some kind of Lovecraftian monster, judging by that panel of them together on the bed.... :|
BlakeJustBlake:
So, who did today's guest comic?
Mad Cat:
I thought it was Marigold who had the Badtz-Maru fetish, not Faye.
